Selk’bag® USA, Inc. Announces Launch of Selk’bag® Patagon

Selk’bag USA, Inc. today announced the release of its newest Selk’bag® model, the Patagon. The most technical model ever created by Selk’bag®, the Patagon enables the wearer to have even greater freedom and mobility, thanks to the detachable bootie system. In addition, wearers will enjoy improved temperature ratings, thanks to a more technical construction, an improved shell material, and a new insulation technology, Krekran®.

Arguably the most versatile sleepwear system in the world thanks its innovative design, Selk’bag® Patagon offers several upgrades over other Selk’bag models, including:

Removable booties that zip off and allow the wearer to use their own footwear. Booties zip together and may be used as a pillow

A more anatomical two-dimensional fit that greatly reduces dead air space and improves thermal performance as well as fit

Improved shell materials that are stronger, lighter and more thermally efficient

A redesigned quick-release hand closure system that uses magnets for even faster hand exit and entry

New Velcro straps that serve to ‘roll-up’ the Patagon’s sleeves, allowing the wearer to work with their hands, be it cooking, preparing a fire, playing a guitar or other activities

The Patagon will have a MSRP of $259 and will be available beginning August 10 through Selk’bag USA and it’s network of dealers. The new Patagon will be marketed under the company’s current “You’re not a mummy, don’t sleep like one” advertising campaign.
